At least one thing that helps me with disagreements is that I understand that even if a person has the most accurate facts, the most airtight argument, laid out in the least confrontational way possible, the people arguing with them can still just choose to ignore everything they say and, for example, believe an entirely circular argument instead.  Like I don't assume all failures to persuade people are due to bad or even badly presented arguments.  You can explain all you want, but you can't make a person understand you if they're determined not to.

I think this is a good fact to keep in mind to better cope with failure.
